[kramdown-users] [ANN] kramdown 0.11.0 released

## About kramdown
kramdown (sic, not Kramdown or KramDown, just kramdown) is a *free*
GPL-licensed [Ruby](http://www.ruby-lang.org) library for parsing a
superset of Markdown. It is completely written in Ruby, supports
standard Markdown (with some minor modifications) and various
extensions that have been made popular by the [PHP Markdown Extra]
package and [Maruku].

## kramdown 0.11.0 released
The biggest change in this release is the implementation of the "lazy
syntax" which allows one to not use the correct indent or block marker
and still continue a paragraph, blockquote, ... The original Markdown
syntax allows this and it was requested that kramdown allows this, too.
However, the main reason for adding this syntax to kramdown is not to
encourage authors to be lazy but to allow kramdown texts to be
hard-wrapped by other applications (think, for example, email
programs). Therefore you shouldn't make active use of this feature when
creating a kramdown document!
Another important, though minor, change is that invalid HTML tags and
extensions are not removed anymore. This is done because of the general
rule that unrecognized elements are treated as simple text.
**Note**: The "internal" API (which is currently everything except the
`Kramdown::Document` class) has changed and developers may therefore
need to update their extensions!
